Made it back home. Pretty much did an iron butt today with detours and some extra riding thrown in, Omaha - Lenoir City was 900 miles, so I finished up the 100 and got over 1000. Not sure how I am going to fill out the paperwork though.

Will start up a day by day write up this weekend with more pics than whats on the blog.

Glad you made it home! I hope the trip was as epic and worth it as you imagined!

The only bad thing I find after being on the road that long, is that for the first few days, I don't really feel *at home*. I feel like I belong *out there*. Once you've been *there*, you know what I mean.

It was epic, some of it was better, some of it was worse. All in all it was the best I could ever hope for. I still can't believe my luck in weather. I had perfect weather for 99% of the trip. I got a little rain on the first day and a little in San Francisco. The rest of the trip was 40s-90s. Easily handled by my gear. I was never in a situation where I was too cold. I did get a little toasty coming in today when it was high 90s from Mizzou to Tenn. Nashville rush hour traffic was the worst weather I had.
